[QUOTE="walnut_face, post: 1255096, member: 292414"] The most important fuel in any exercise is water. A reduction of around 2% body weight due to de-hydration will lead to a reduced performance of 10 to 20% I used to run marathons, and only took water along the route, little and often, around a pint every hour. You will find that if you exceed aerobic levels of exercise you may well experience an increase in blood sugars, that is temporary and is probably offset by the longer term benefits of exercise such as increased insulin sensitivity [/QUOTE]
